- 1/4 inch Virgin White Felt
- Two Panels of ThinLine Protection
- Shimmable – All Five Star half pads come with a set of ThinLine Trim-to-Fit shims
ThinLine, known for decades as the best low profile shock absorbing pad material, embarked this year on a mission to join forces with the best saddle pads on the market in other areas of expertise. To this end we are proud to announce our Joint Venture with 5 Star Pads. Beginning with their English felt half pad line we hope to encompass western and endurance disciplines in the coming year.
Here is a little about why we chose to join with 5 Star and create an exceptional half pad with 5 Star felt and ThinLine.
At 5 Star, we use only 100% pure, industrial-grade wool—no shortcuts. The result? Superior compression protection, natural moisture-wicking, and consistent fit that improves with use.
- Crafted, Not Mass Produced
Each 5 Star pad is made by skilled hands in the USA—not pulled off a production line overseas. Our attention to contour, stitching, and longevity means your pad performs season after season, even under heavy use. - Designed for True Saddle Fit
While many pads compress unevenly or create pressure points over time, 5 Star’s dense wool maintains its shape and adapts to your horse’s back with every ride. The result: better weight distribution, reduced soreness, and a more balanced ride—no gimmicks, just performance.
